Role_5	Permissions for manager users
Role_6	Permissions for admin users

Permissions can be for either a form or a field. Permissions are denoted with numbers for each permission group.

The permission syntax for forms:

1	Form enabled
2	Form disabled: you can access it, view data, but cannot edit or save anything
3	Form hidden: it can not be viewed or accessed
4	Form enabled, only if the user has permissions for the particular client type of the currently selected client
5	Form disabled, only if the user has permissions for the particular client type of the currently selected client. The user is still not able to edit or save anything.

The permission syntax for fields:

1	Field enabled
2	Field disabled: you can view it, but cannot edit it
3	Field hidden
4	Field enabled, only if the user has permissions for the particular client type of the currently selected client
5	Field disabled, only if the user has permissions for the particular client type of the currently selected client.
6	Password field: The field is visible, but readonly, and the user only sees asterisks instead of actual characters
